(a) With abl. (in verb. finit. very rare with personal object): aut corporis firmitate aut fortunae stabilitate, Cic. Tusc. 5, 14, 40: copiā et facultate causae, id. Rosc. Com. 1, 2; id.

B. G. 8, 3; 8, 15; Auct. B. Afr. 49: tam potenti duce confisus, Liv. 24, 5, 12; 28, 42, 12: nullā aliā urbe, Cic. Fam. 12, 14, 4; Lentul. ib. 12, 15, 3: patientiā nostrā, Plin.
